CURRENT MISSION

Go around the world without flying (unless absolutely necessary)

ABOUT ME

I am a 33 years old French guy currently on a trip around the world, to meet people and make friends in every country I go to.

I am very easy-going, respectful and extremely curious about the different ways of life in this world.

Another goal of this trip is to get to know myself better, to rethink my priorities in life and get a better idea about what I want to do with the rest of my life.

PHILOSOPHY

Dance as long as the music is playing and live as if today was your last day.
Enjoy life fully because itâ

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a huge number of couches since I started my trip: I want to leave positive experiences to the people I meet.

I have recently participated in the elaboration of a documentary about couchsuring on French TV.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was supposed to be on the flight TWA 800 (this plane crashed close to New York on July 17, 1996) but I missed my flight! I am very much alive and grateful for it.

Teach, Learn, Share

- teach
* The world is an amazing place with lots of friendly people who just haven't met yet. I am trying to teach this idea to people I encounter throughout my journey
* I can also teach you French (I was a French teacher in a previous life) and a very limited number of French meals

- Learn
I can learn from every single person I come in contact with. Life is a journey full of interesting lessons

- Share
We can share interesting moments together; by using CS, I aim to taste a slice of your daily life. We can exchange different points of view and chat about just about anything
